INDOOR GAMES FOR TEAM BUILDING

GOING TO THE MOON
This is a guessing/deductive game in which the first
person establishes a word pattern for everyone else to
figure out. He or she says, Im going to the moon and Im
going to take (name an object). Everyone else follows by
repeating the same phrase but naming a different object
with the same pattern. Patterns could include words that
start with the same letter as the speaking persons name,
words with double consonants, or words that begin with
the last letter of the previous word. from Games
PRINCESS UGGAWUGGA
The purpose of this game is to make your opponent
laugh. In pairs, one person starts by saying, Princess
Uggawugga is dead, gone, and deceased. The other
person responds by saying, How and when did she die?
The game continues with one person asking questions
and the other responding until someone laughs.
GHOST
The object of the game is to avoid completing a word.
The first player names a letter and succeeding players
continue to name letters in an order that spells a word,
while attempting to avoid completing a word. If you do

complete a word, you must take a letter from the word

ghost in the same way as when you play horse in
basketball. Variation: Letters can be added either after or
before the previously named letters. from Games
WORD WHISKERS
A word whisker is a time-filler word like uh, er, um,
you know, okay, etc. The object is to try to talk for 30
seconds without using a word whisker. Not talking for
more than three seconds is also a word whisker. from
Games
POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT
One person is selected to leave the room and should be
out of earshot. The rest of the group chooses some action
it would like the absent person to perform. When ready,
the group calls the person back in. The means of
reinforcement is clapping. By clapping louder or softer,
the group influences the subject to do whatever action the
group wants. from Games
